The Boy has discovered the M80s. Does Axiom sell replacement woofers by the case?

He actually hasn't damaged anything yet--he's just starting to use them to pull up with. He doesn't know the covers come off. But I've seen him leaning against the grill cloth.

I still am a fan of these...

Scat Mat

Put them in front of your speakers, and just make sure that Junior is barefoot. A few zaps, and a few tears later, he'll stay away...





Just kidding of course....

Heh... some Rob Zombie came up on the iPod on Sunday and my wife looked at me and said, "This would sound better louder, wouldn't it?" sighed, reached for the remote and proceeded to turn it up louder than I would have. The Boy was crawling around on the floor in front of the speakers. He looked somewhat shocked.

Of course, right after the song was one of the first times I've seen him go over to the speakers.

Mojo, telling him not to usually works like this: "Elliott, don't eat that." "LamlamMamMmmaaal" *Glup* "MlamLamYamHaamL"

Almost sounds like a Simpson's quote.

Those scat mats are great for pets.
A vet friend of ours decided he wanted to test himself with them one lovely New Year's eve. He got about 10 seconds on high and then his eyebrows had enough.

Geez, that's right up there with "sitting around drinking beer and playing games with pepper spray".

Oh I dont know, I think it would just plain be irresponsible to use it on your pet without first trying it out yourself. Dont you think?

Sort of like when I decided to see if my laptop power adapter was hazardous if the boy were to stick his tongue in it. That hurt.

Ah! Sort of a tongue-on-the-metal-flagpole-in-January thing.

Didn't I hear something about you baking your motherboard in an oven to see if it would run faster?

What are doing, trying out for the Darwin Awards?
